Duelist will have poor AC compared to a sword-and-shield + armor guy, and will not do any more damage. Unfettered is the best lightly armored combatant class that I've seen, and it's fairly well balanced in my opinion.Mix in some Barbarian levels if you can, if you want to Rage for the extra HP and damage. Though it depends how many rounds you're expecting the battle to last and what your aim is. Are you aiming to survive, or to take down some other characters on the way?Monk/Duelist is a good way to get excessive AC when wearing no armor. The only other time I might take Duelist is with a swashbuckling Wizard to get the AC bonus. And then think about Polymorphing and otherwise buffing. I'm not that familiar with the appropriate spells/buff route along these lines, but I think it's fairly good ... assuming you have the opportunity to buff.Other silliness: take the Leadership feat, get a Wizard cohort and have the rest of your low level guys be archers/melee guys. Give the Wizard a Wand of Fireballs or Scrolls of Fireball with your money ... Serious suggestion: talk the other players out of fighting.</blockquote>
